AS STOURBRIDGE’S season metamorphoses into a Monty Python sketch, ambitious Caldy will be the next to ask: ‘What have the Saxons proved so far’?

AS STOURBRIDGE’S season metamorphoses into a Monty Python sketch, ambitious Caldy will be the next to ask: ‘What have the Saxons proved so far’?

Apart from derby wins over Bees, Dudley Kingswinford and Bromsgrove – and examinations of their credentials by Huddersfield, Stockport and Luctonians – just what have Neil Mitchell’s side done in National Two?

Well, says, Ben Hughes, they have established themselves as league leaders who are yet to drop a point – and also as the team everyone wants to beat.

“I think we are going to have a lot of tough games,” the experienced second-row insisted.

“Teams are finding themselves as they go forward, we have got a few very tough away games going up north and teams are going to come after us.

“We are the scalp at the moment. I love that, it’s good for Stourbridge because it means we have got to perform every weekend.”

Bees have a golden opportunity to extricate themselves from near the drop zone when they face second-bottom, winless Westoe at home.

DK will try to clip Grasshoppers’ wings at Heathbrook, as they too seek their second victory, while Bromsgrove host third-placed Darlington Mowden Park.
